New facility will expand GAC’s presence in Abu Dhabi
GAC, the integrated shipping, logistics and marine services provider, is opening a warehouse and open yard in the Middle East’s largest industrial zone and a subsidiary of Abu Dhabi Ports, Khalifa Industrial Zone Abu Dhabi (KIZAD).
The new GAC Abu Dhabi facility, expected to be fully operational by January 2019, will serve a wide range of sectors including oil and gas, manufacturing, construction, FMCG, household effects, and specialist equipment.
GAC has been in Abu Dhabi since 1967, and today has facilities at Sila, Ruwais, Mussafah, Mina Zayed and Abu Dhabi International Airport.
“By joining the thriving KIZAD community, GAC becomes the latest major enterprise to realise the impact that the strategic location and exceptional infrastructure and support offered by our zone can have on their business,” said Samir Chaturvedi, CEO, KIZAD.
“Setting up operations at KIZAD gives us the advantage of being close to the state-of-the-art port, enabling greater operational efficiency for both GAC and our customers,” commented Göran Eriksson, Managing Director, GAC-Abu Dhabi.
